Thomas J. McCormick

Thomas J. McCormick is an emeritus professor of history at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, the same place he got a Ph. D.[1] where he succeeded William Appleman Williams and continued the groundbreaking work of the so-called Wisconsin School of diplomatic history. Indeed he is considered one of the core members of the Wisconsin School, along with Williams, Walter LaFeber, and Lloyd Gardner.[2][3]

He has used Immanuel Wallerstein's world-systems approach to describe the dynamics of corporatism in US diplomatic history.
